Back home in the town of Sechelt, chief of police Alberg almost begins to yearn for his days as a big-city cop when summer heat brings out the small-town crazies -- such as a volatile petting zoo owner who is irate after recent vandalism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeanwhile, Alberg's personal life also threatens to boil over. Not only is his daughter visiting, but his ex-wife is getting married again. Weaving together strands of Alberg's personal life, the oppressiveness of a Pacific Northwest summer heatwave, and the latent danger lingering around small-town life, J.R. Wright yet again delivers an atmospheric mystery in the Murder In A Small Town series' fourth novel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Alberg continues to be a most appealing protagonist -- akin to P.D.
